$BTC Apple has significantly changed its position on cryptocurrencies and NFTs following a recent ruling by a U.S. court. Previously, Apple imposed a 30% commission on in-app purchases and restricted developers from directing users to external payment platforms. The court found these practices to be anti-competitive, ordering Apple to allow links to external payments in iOS apps without imposing its 30% commission.

This change allows crypto app developers to integrate features such as NFT marketplaces and crypto wallets directly into their apps, circumventing Apple's payment system. While Apple still prohibits cryptocurrency mining and token rewards within apps, the updated policies represent a substantial step toward supporting crypto innovation on iOS.

These developments are seen as a significant victory for the crypto industry, potentially leading to increased adoption and innovation within the Apple ecosystem.
